The chime will only sound at the first indication of a flat tire and the warning light will illuminate continuously. When the flat tire warning is activated, have the system reset and the tire checked and replaced if necessary by your NISSAN dealer. Even if the tire is inflated to the specified COLD tire pressure, the warning light will continue to illuminate until the system is reset by your NISSAN dealer. If the low tire pressure warning light illuminates continuously and the "Flat Tire- Visit DealerЉ warning appears in the vehicle information display: ● Do not exceed 50 MPH (80 km/h). ● Increase your following distance to allow for increased stopping distances. ● Avoid sudden maneuvers, hard cornering and hard braking. ● Do not drive at speeds above 50 MPH (80 km/h) and do not drive more than approximately 93 miles (150 km) with a punctured run-flat tire. The actual distance the vehicle can be driven on a flat tire depends on outside temperature, vehicle load, read conditions and other factors. ● Drive safely at reduced speeds. Avoid hard cornering or braking, which may cause you to lose control of the vehicle. ● If you detect any unusual sounds or vibrations while driving with a punctured run-flat tire, pull off the road to a safe location and stop the vehicle as soon as possible. The tire may be seriously damaged and need to be replaced. ● Do not enter an automated car wash with a punctured run-flat tire. ● Have the punctured tire inspected by a NISSAN dealer or other authorized repair shop. Replace the tire as soon as possible if the tire is seriously damaged. ● Always use tires of the same type, size, brand, construction (bias, bias-belted or radial), and tread pattern on all four wheels. Failure to do so may result in a circumference difference between tires on the front and rear axles which will cause excessive tire wear and may damage the transmission, transfer case and differential gears (AWD models). ● ONLY use spare tires specified for the AWD model. ● If excessive tire wear is found, it is recommended that all four tires be replaced with tires of the same size, brand, construction and tread pattern. The tire pressure and wheel alignment should also be checked and corrected as necessary. Contact a NISSAN dealer. CAUTION ● Never install tire chains on a punctured run-flat tire, as this could damage your vehicle. ● Avoid driving over any projection or pothole, as the clearance between the vehicle and the ground is smaller than normal. WARNING ● Although you can continue driving with a punctured run-flat tire, remember that vehicle handling stability is reduced, which could lead to an accident and personal injury. Also, driving a long distance at high speeds may damage the tire. Maintenance and do-it-yourself 8-39
